This year I will not be able to go on holiday by sea. The situation with the virus has greatly deteriorated. So I will spend time until the next vacation with memories.
Memories are like a mosaic. Every little pebble is part of the whole.
Memories. We all have them. Happy, sad, warm, happy, difficult, painful, sparkling, interesting, … They are the threads from which life is woven and the older they are, the deeper they are imprinted on us.
Hidden in the corners of our thoughts, they harden like a shooting star and draw a smile on our faces. Maybe a tear is shed with a smile. Sometimes a smell, sometimes a song or a sound, the resemblance of a man who steps in front of you and a series of images is enough. One by one, they put together into a story. About summer days, warm wind, friends, joy, fun, and blue sea on the horizon.

Sometimes I remember a past thing or events, and it’s like, I wish I would go back to that time.
I often relive some memories. Especially from my younger years.
Good article. I always look back and remember many moments.
Thank you, Branka. I guess the memories never leave us.
we are thinking along the same lines, that memories have many forms.
You are right. I think the memories stay in our subconscious forever.
they do, although some like pictures become faded with time.
You are right. Some memories can be “got rid of” over time. At least the “irrelevant” ones.
it is so true, I often wonder why some memories will not stop popping up!
I have always liked to just forget the past, and just try to make it into the future…lol…
There are memories, and then there are memories.
I do try to remember factual stuff, and useful stuff, but, the past, I have always swept far away behind me.
Most of it is better forgotten about, at least for me anyway.
War veterans try to do the same thing, I think, but I am no war veteran, so it would be interesting to find out why I am like that.
I also try to forget at least bad memories. But I think the memories stay in our subconscious and come back every now and then.
Yes, they do try to keep coming back, I think too.
Sometimes, they revisit us in our dreams, even, in some form, or another.
I agree. I didn’t know they could happen again in a dream until my psychiatrist explained it to me.
Psychiatrists, and psychologists, are sometimes good at interpreting what is usually hidden behind the scenes of a dream too.
I agree. I had a pretty hard life and it left consequences on my psyche.
Hoping next year will be better for the entire world. I could not survive without memories.
I agree with you. We can only wait and hope for better times.
